When you have a chance Conrad could you svn update the site and take another look…?

And in this case, looks like I have to apologize to IE… was our problem not theirs…

svn up fixes it for me…

Well sort of. It was my fault (a badly closed ‘span’) but most browsers, as we see, cope well with that sort of error correction (rightly or wrongly) so while you might say hats off to IE for showing up the error you could also say it is unhelpful to us poor developers who are famous for their typos.

Yup fixed it for me too.  See you’ve done some other meddlin, what does that do then? Do you guys put a text file in each svn up explaining what you’ve done or would that be too tedious given that it’s really hectic. If you do where can I find it to stop me asking inane questions. I like to it to appear that I have a bit of a clue what’s going on.

You can always check the websvn and compare revisions and see what was added or removed. Smile

I always (well almost) add a comment when a ticket is committed… it would show in the websvn log or the mantis ticket… or if you have a svn log client (such as commit monitor) then you can see the comment too…

I still get on andy about not adding comments on commits Wink  like he gets on me for not putting in function headers Surprised

Yes had a poke around websvn last night and can see plenty.

Steve you seem to be very well behaved from an svn point of view.

I will never be prepared to make any negative comments about Andy so don’t try drawing me into that one Laugh. In fact the only negative comment that I have about you Steve is your atrocious (alternative) spelling Wink.

Yes – at least MY spelling mistakes are genuine typo’s. Maybe Steve doesn’t gave an ‘s’ key in his keyboard Smile

I like that you guys loosen your ties a bit in this part of the forum smile

I used to banter more in the support forum but when you have just answered the same question for the 219th time and am wondering if the search really works; or you have just discovered yet another badly written theme that some 14 year old kid wants you to spend three hours wrestling with for a forum you know he is going to take down again in two months time… well – let’s just say sometimes the humour deserts me.
